Best Buy says ICS for the RAZR delayed, Rezound still on for Friday

Best Buy says ICS for the RAZR delayed, Rezound still on for Friday

Posted on Apr 06, 2012 by MG1

Droid-Life got ahold of an internal employee memo Best Buy sent out yesterday, updating employees on the status of Ice Cream Sandwich updates for some of Verizon’s most popular phones. First, Best Buy told employees what we already reported to you – that the updates headed to the Droid RAZR and RAZR MAXX aren’t going to be ICS, they will be bug fixes.
We’re not sure that translates as ICS being “delayed”; there was never anything but speculation that today’s soak test for RAZR devices would be Android 4.0, so Best Buy may have simply jumped the gun with their previous announcement.

HTC Reveals Which Devices Will Unwrap Ice Cream Sandwich

HTC Reveals Which Devices Will Unwrap Ice Cream Sandwich

Posted on Mar 15, 2012 by MG3

Do you own a Droid Incredible 2 by HTC? If so, you can expect a future update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS). The same applies to the HTC Amaze 4G, Desire S, Desire HD, and a dozen other smartphones HTC has confirmed will be upgraded to ICS. Unfortunately, HTC didn't provide specific dates for any of the planned upgrades, so you'll have to settle for warm fuzzies from simply knowing your device is the list.

HTC Rezound is a "secret" global phone?

HTC Rezound is a "secret" global phone?

Posted on Jan 27, 2012 by MG1

Some enterprising HTC Rezound owners at the XDA Developers forums have discovered that by putting a GSM SIM card in the Rezound that you get more network options to choose from. Switching will reportedly allow owners to place and receive calls on GSM networks, although the phone often resets itself. In some cases they are reporting data access over GSM networks as well, although SMS is generally reported to not be working.
It’s important to note that the FCC did not note or test any GSM radio or antenna in the Rezound, so something fishy is going on here. Yet it seems that too many people have confirmed using the GSM radio for it to be an elaborate hoax, and the Qualcomm MSM8660 SoC does inc...

HTC releases the source code for the Rezound, Explorer, Desire S, and Amaze 4G

HTC releases the source code for the Rezound, Explorer, Desire S, and Amaze 4G

Posted on Nov 23, 2011 by MG1

Great news for you developers and hackers out there. HTC recently announced the official release of the Kernel source code of its four top notch devices. These handsets include the recently announced HTC Rezound, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC Explorer, HTC Desire S and the HTC Desire.
So what’s the big deal about source codes anyway? Well, source codes are incredibly useful as they not only allow users to take a closer look at new software, so a report of any bugs can be formulated. Also, they give developers and hackers a chance to either pullout usable parts or use the bits to create custom ROMs for devices. Basically, without a kernel source you can’t upload those cool third-party ROM’s from XDA-deve...

HTC Rezound starts shipping early because you can't stop the Beats

HTC Rezound starts shipping early because you can't stop the Beats

Posted on Nov 10, 2011 by MG1

When HTC took the wraps off the Rezound, it tipped us off to a November 14th launch for Verizon's Beats Audio-branded device. Now, it appears that those of you who jumped on the pre-order bandwagon are getting premature access to the red-and-black-tinged goods, with some units arriving as early as today. How'd this come about? Well, it seems a few eager beavers lucked out during the purchasing process, selecting overnight delivery and receiving the phones toute de suite. We can't promise you Big Red's still honoring this ordering quirk, but don't let that stop you from trying your luck. We have a feeling Dr. Dre would approve.

HTC details Android 4.0 ICS upgrade for 8 smartphones

Posted on Nov 08, 2011 by MG1

Many have wondered what HTC's plans are when it comes to upgrading its existing Android smartphones to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, as the manufacturer has said that it was still evaluating the new operating system and how it fits with HTC's custom Sense interface that it likes to use. Now, those questions have found answers, as HTC has announced a list of eight smartphones that will get Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades in 2012.
The company says that in addition to the just-released HTC Vivid, which is apparently ready for Ice Cream Sandwich out of the box, the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation XL, HTC Sensation XE, HTC Rezound, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G, and HTC Amaze 4G are all planned to get...

HTC announces specifics on Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades, includes Rezound

HTC announces specifics on Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades, includes Rezound

Posted on Nov 07, 2011 by MG1

It's been a little over two weeks since Google unveiled Ice Cream Sandwich along with its first ambassador, the Galaxy Nexus. Since then, a few manufacturers have shared their intent to bring Android 4.0 to specific devices. HTC was initially rather vague about its upgrade plans -- no doubt faced with the daunting task of keeping Sense relevant in light of ICS' vast design improvements -- but tonight the Taiwanese giant issued an official statement on Facebook outlining specifics on its Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades. Basically, it looks like most (if not all) of HTC's high-end phones since the introduction of the Sensation will be getting a taste of Google's latest tasty treat early next year,...

HTC took the wraps off of the HTC Rezound during a press event in New York City on Thursday, a new 4G LTE Android smartphone for Verizon Wireless that takes advantage of the HTC’s Beats Audio technology. The Rezound is equipped with a 4.3-inch touchscreen with a sharp 1280 x 720-pixel HD resolution, a dual-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz and 1GB of RAM.

Verizon runs HTC Rezound ads early, confirms Beats audio

Verizon runs HTC Rezound ads early, confirms Beats audio

Posted on Oct 31, 2011 by MG1

Verizon on Sunday spoiled HTC's November 3 event by posting ads for the Rezound. While they don't show more than a product shot, they do confirm the Beats Audio connection, including the signature red-corded headphones and red light-up navigation keys. The ads hint the phone might be ready to go soon after the event.
The Rezound, sometimes known as the Vigor, is expected to be HTC's most advanced US phone. It will be a slight spin on the Raider, already available in Canada, and revolve around a very sharp 4.5-inch, 720x1280 screen. A dual-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon processor and LTE-based 4G will also put it at the high end, although Verizon's model will logically use CDMA for voice instead of t...

Even though we haven’t seen the official press photos for the upcoming HTC Rezound, a different type of press photo has leaked of the powerful Android handset that shows it off wearing an HTC branded case.
For the past couple of months we have come to know the device formerly known as the HTC Vigor quite well. We have seen it in unofficial photos, videos, renders and more. Although the smartphone is expected to be launched on November 10 on Verizon Wireless along with the Motorola DROID RAZR and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus it still hasn’t been officially introduced.

Verizon's Device Management System shows off HTC Rezound

Verizon's Device Management System shows off HTC Rezound

Posted on Oct 17, 2011 by MG1

Verizon customers with an upgrade to burn have been focusing their attention on three handsets-the Apple iPhone 4S and the upcoming HTC Vigor, Google Nexus Prime and the Motorola DROID RAZR. What is missing from this shopping list is the HTC Rezound which has appeared on Big Red's Device Management System. If the name sounds foreign to you, it is because sources for Droid-Life say that this is the phone that you have known for the last few months as the HTC Vigor
The HTC Rezound is said to offer some sweet, high-end specs as it will be one of the HTC Beats phones which means special earphones come with the handset and outstanding audio comes out of the handset. The Rezound will also feature ...

HTC Vigor Photo Leak Reveals 1.5 GHz Dual-Core Processor, 720p Display, And 4G LTE Support

Posted on Sep 27, 2011 by MG1

Since we first caught wind of the HTC Vigor, things have been blurry. And I don’t just mean leaked photos — we’ve been back and forth on a few different features like display resolution, or whether or not it’ll be a Droid-branded handset. But for a handset with such an air of mystery, our latest leak has really spilled the beans.
Courtesy of Droid-Life, we now have some semi-clear pictures, and a full list of hardware specifications for what is indeed the HTC Vigor. According to the “Hardware Information” page displayed within the pictures, the Vigor will run a 1.5GHz dual-core processor with Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread. Sense 3.5, the newest version of HTC’s user interface, will also come pac...

HTC Vigor Packs Beats Audio, LTE, But No DROID Branding?

Posted on Sep 26, 2011 by MG3

Here’s a noodle-scratcher to ponder over the weekend: the HTC Vigor was supposedly going to hit Verizon as the Droid Incredible HD, but files leaked from the forthcoming device hint that the phone may not carry the Droid distinction after all.
Someone who was lucky enough to have a Vigor in their possession managed to rip the device’s boot sequence, wallpapers, and sound files, and shared their findings with AndroidPolice.
